NSF/ANSI 401

Whatโ€™s certified

  • Chlorine
  • Nominal Particulate Reduction, Class I
  • Taste and Odor
  • Cyst
  • Lead
  • VOC
  • Microplastics

Brand claims but NOT certified

  • PFOA
  • PFOS
  • Fluoride
  • BPA
Why these arenโ€™t certified โ†“
  • PFOA โ€” not on this SKU's certification listing (no Everpure listing names PFOA; PFOA claims are listed under NSF/ANSI 53 or 58)
  • PFOS โ€” same as above; no H-300 listing names PFOS
  • Fluoride โ€” not on the H-300 certification listing
  • BPA โ€” not on the H-300 listing; the EF-1500 is the BPA-listed model

Everpure-EF-1500

Everpure EF-1500 (residential under-sink, NSF/ANSI 401-certified)

Standards held

Whatโ€™s certified

  • Chlorine
  • Nominal Particulate Reduction, Class I
  • Taste and Odor
  • Cyst
  • Lead
  • Microplastics

Brand claims but NOT certified

  • PFOA
  • PFOS
Why these arenโ€™t certified โ†“
  • PFOA โ€” the EF-1500's listings don't name PFOA (its NSF/ANSI 401 listing covers emerging-contaminant surrogates, and 401 does not cover PFAS)
  • PFOS โ€” same as PFOA; not named on the certification listing

Pelican-PSE-1800

Pentair Pelican PSE-1800 (whole-house carbon + softener)

Standards held

No active certifications

Whatโ€™s certified

No third-party listing for this SKU in our certification data

Brand claims but NOT certified

  • Lead
  • PFAS
  • VOCs
Why these arenโ€™t certified โ†“
  • Lead โ€” not on this whole-house system, which is NSF/ANSI 42 only; lead reduction needs an NSF/ANSI 53 listing
  • PFAS โ€” not on the whole-house certification listing
  • VOCs โ€” same as lead; VOC reduction is NSF/ANSI 53 territory, not held on the whole-house product

Pelican whole-house systems are certified to NSF/ANSI 42 (chlorine, taste & odor) and serve as a pre-treatment and carbon stage. For NSF/ANSI 53 lead, cyst, and VOC reduction you need a separate point-of-use system; whole-house carbon alone is not the certified path for those contaminants.
